Question regarding ASO application in Essbase 11 version

Hi All,
Thanks for the replies to my previous posts.
I have a question regarding the ASO applications for telecom company built in Essbase 11 version. Please provide your feedback on the design.
The ASO application has the following number of Dimensions:
Dimensions     Number of Levels     Number of Level 0 Members     Number of Attribute Dimensions
Dimension1     2     6.5 million     15
Dimension2 1     3
Dimension3     1     4
Dimension4 1      6
Dimension5 1     6
Dimension6     1     5
Dimension7 1     3
Dimension8     5     1700
Dimension9     2     800
Dimension10 2     40000
Dimension11 3     750
Dimension12 2     34000
Dimension13 1      15
The number of Measures is 8.
The outline size is around 2.12 GB.
The data is mostly sparse. Does this design yield a good performance. Should I change some of the attributes to UDAs to increase the performance.I think Attribute dimensions are more flexible than UDAs but it affects the performance of the retrieval.
Thanks in advance.
Kannan.

In ASO attribute dimensions are treated like regular dimensions, That is to say they are materalized just like a regular dimension. Changing them to UDA's won't buy you the same performance as having them as dimensions will. The one nice thing about Attributes in ASO cubes (and BSO cubes) is you don't clutter us the screen with dimensions that are not used a lot. If your attrubite dimensions are used often in your ASO cube, there would be no performance difference if you made them regular dimensions.

EPMA 11.1.1.3 deployment of ASO application to Essbase issue

Hi,
We are having trouble deploying an ASO application from EPMA to Essbase. When we deploy the application it validates okay and then completes 100% but the outline does not get loaded into Essbase. In the EPMA deployment message text is the following error
*[Network Error: Cannot send Data, Loading new outline for database Failed]*
NB: 1. we have two other applications: a planning application and a BSO application. Both can be successfully deployed from the same application library to the same Essbase server so i think the issue is specific to the ASO application.
2. We successfully deployed the ASO application last Friday at 4pm prior to the change I am tryign to implement this week.
3. The three applications share common dimensions from the shared library one of which is the Account dimension.
4. The change I am trying to deploy is an alternate hierarchy in the account dimension (dynamic calc - containing shared members) - I have changed the storage type to Storedata in the ASO application.
5. I have subsequently removed the alternate hierarchy and tried to deploy - still gettign the same issue.
Any suggestions on where to look to solve this would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance

Restoring the whole driectory has still been unsuccessful.
deployign the application from EPMA will start to build the otn file - very slowly - it took over an hour and then it just stops and never completes the deploy so we are left with an OTN and an OTL file and EPMA states that the application is deployed but out of sync with deployment.
the error we are gettign in the application log file is
[Thu Oct 04 09:20:27 2012]Local/FINASO///Error(1270005)
Fatal error: invalid page encountered in aggregate storage file at location [0001.0001.00000002]
[Thu Oct 04 09:20:27 2012]Local/FINASO///Error(1270071)
Page ID [0000.0000.00000000] in the page header doesn't match page location [0001.0001.00000002]
I have also tried building a replacement ASO application in EPMA and deploying it - we were able to complete this with an application with 3 local dimensions each with 1 member but this took over an hour. when we try to do it with the same build as our DEVELOPMENT equivalent for the ASO file (which works in dev) it starts to build it but then falls over and leaves just an otn in the database directory.
any ideas on what else i should be lookign at?
cheers

Question Regarding Closing Applications/Programs

hey guys
i've noticed on my new mac that when you click the red circle on the screen that you're on, it just closes that window and not actually the program..
you have to go up to the top bar and go to Quit or Exit to actually fully close the program..
is there a way so the program will close when i click the red circle?
its not a big deal its just kind of annoying b/c i forget to go to the top and close them
thanks

Hey Beau,
For most of us here who have been around a while, we have discovered these little gems that save time for us. While the mouse enables some great ways to interface, for quitting applications and getting the heck out of dodge, the Keyboard shortcuts work for us. After a while, you will get to know them as you see the drop down menus you see from the Menu Bar. You slowly start learning them and get used to using them in time.
For more, look in your SysPrefs in Mouse/Keyboard settings. They are in every app too.

ASO Application with Unicode-mode Support??

Hi All, I would like to know if its possible to create an ASOapplication with Unicode-mode support. I see BSO can be created as as Unicode-mode application ( bychecking the option) but none is available for ASO application inversion 7.1.5 Essbase Analytics. Please explain why this difference is there and if ASO isprogrammed to be Unicode-mode application by defualt. Thanks, EssbaseWorld

Got answer to my earlier question. ASO Application cannot support Unicode-Mode Apps at this time.

Hi, I want to downgrade from OSX LEOPARD to OSX TIGER but I have a few questions regarding this. My iMac is originally from 2007 it came preloaded with tiger. I have original install tiger discs version 10.4.10. Is it safe to downgrade or not please help

Hi, I want to downgrade from OSX LEOPARD to OSX TIGER but I have a few questions regarding this. My iMac is originally from Sep 2007 it came preloaded with tiger. I have original install (2) tiger discs version 10.4.10. I want to know if it is safe and what are the necessary steps to do so. Also by downgrading im wondering if a lot of apps nowadays support tiger for example I have photoshop version 5 and 4 these are very important to me. One last question does anyone know of any reliable virus protection for mac that doesnt slow down your computer? because I have read that a lot of them do so. If anyone can help me I would greatly appreciate it! Here are the specs for my iMac
Model Name:
iMac
Model Identifier:
iMac7,1
Processor Name:
Intel Core 2 Duo

Most of the time a perception of general slow performance is the result of installing third party junk alleged to speed up, "clean" or "optimize" your Mac, or to look for viruses that don't exist. Ideally you would know what you installed so you can uninstall it, but if you don't know or aren't sure there are techniques such as Safe Mode and creating a temporary user account to confirm that suspicion.
If you open Activity Monitor it may show a process, or processes, that occupy a lot of your system's time.
Slowness confined solely to web browser activity is often the result of an inexorable progress toward websites that demand ever more processor-intensive tasks. If your slow performance is strictly limited to web browsing, you might try disabling Flash by either uninstalling it, or use utilities such as ClickToFlash that allow you to control what Flash content gets loaded. Flash in itself is not inherently evil, but there is nothing to stop websites or the advertisers who pay for them from writing horrible Flash code that can do everything from hogging 100% of your CPU's time to causing random crashes. You can watch Activity Monitor as in the above to correlate these troublesome web pages with performance degradation.
You are correct; if your computer shipped with Tiger you may certainly revert to it. I forgot that Tiger was shipping on new Macs as recently as five years ago. To downgrade it would be necessary to completely erase your hard disk and boot with the Tiger installation DVD, followed by installing it anew. Such drastic measures are not necessary and you are unlikely to be satisfied with the results anyway.
Assuming your system is free of third party parasitic junk attached to OS X in an ill-conceived attempt to improve upon it, that your hard disk drive is sound and the boot volume has enough free space to work with, by far the best performance-enhancing improvement would be to add more memory. Buy as much as your computer can use and that you can afford. 2 GB is not that much any more.

How to export level0 data in COLUMNAR form from an ESSBASE ASO application?

Hello,
I am in the need to export the level0 data from as 11.1.1.3 Essbase ASO application in COLUMNAR form.
please note that the size of the db is 6GB and report script failed.
Is it possible? please sugesst a way.
thanks,
Ankit

y dont you use report script
few tips to for build report script when you have huge data
1. Decrease the amount of Dynamic Calcs in your outline. If you have to, make it dynamic calc and store.
2. Use the <Sparse command at the beginning of the report script.
3. Use the <Column command for the dense dimensions instead of using the Page command. The order of the dense dimensions in the Column command should
be the same as the order of the dense dimension in the outline. (Ex. <Column (D1, D2)).
4. Use the <Row command for the sparse dimensions. The order of the sparse dimensions in the Row command should be in the opposite order of the sparse
dimension in the outline. (Ex. <Row (S3, S2, S1)). This is commonly called sparse bottom up method.
5. If the user does not want to use the <Column command for the dense dimensions, then the dense dimensions should be placed at the end of the <Row command.
(Ex. <Row (S3, S2, S1, D1, D2)).
6. Do not use the Page command, use the Column command instead.
this will work trust me

Bw Question :regarding the versioning

Hii All,
I did post a question regarding to the versionining of the cube on friday 9th May and still i did not get any reply on that.Plz let me know.otherwise plz keep me posted that you are unable to reply to my question.
My Question was :
In the Versioning of the cube ,we give that version a particular name and select the value type of it as : 110 or 130 or 140. what is this value type .. ? what does this 110,130 or 140 really mean ?
Why we need this value type.? and can we get some documents to read and explore this value type ?. Plz help.
Thanks & regards ,
Madhavi S Bichakal

Hi Madhavi,
Basically in BW you'll find two characteristics used for versioning:
- Version: Used to create different versions of the information
- Value type: used to indicate what the information means.
Examples:
Version 000 is usually Plan/Actual data (the final version). Then, for version 000 you will have different value types, like 010 = Actual, 020 = Plan, 030 = Target, etc..
Then you can have different versions (001, 002, 003) that are used in the planning process. You start with version 001, then you can move to 002, 003,... and when you have the final Plan, you move to 000.
That's the usual usage of version / value type.
but, you can use it as you want. The only problem that you can have is that if you rename the description of a value type, and then you activate a BCT that generates data for that value type and the description will be incorrect.
From what you said, you are using values from 100 and above, SAP uses up to 90 from what i've seen, so you won't have any problems.
Hope this clarifies.

Diego

Slow performance in Smartview retrieval in Essbase ASO Application

Hi,
I am not able to retreive in Smartview for ASO application when taken Bottom- all retreivals for Product dimension (propertiy set as multiple hierarchies enabled) that has 17000 members under it and keeping all other 11 dimensions at top level.
Accounts has 9000 members in which 9 members have MDX formulas
Scenario has 65 members in which 48 members have MDX formulas
It also displays session timeout error while drilling down to all bottom levels in Product dimension keeping all other dimensions at top level in Smartview.
I was able to retreive using Excel Add-in but it took around 15 minutes.
Is there any way to reduce the smartview retreival times in ASO application? Please advice.
Thanks in advance
Shyam

You can try creating aggregate views
However it may be the MDX formulas which may not have been optimized - try to zero on the member formulas which may be causing this. Try to retrieve set of accounts and then check.
Assuming that your timeout registry settings (ReceiveTimeout, KeepAliveTimeout, ServerInfoTimeout ) are properly set

Several Questions Regarding Educational Versions of Software

Alright, I have several questions regarding eduational software from Adobe. I will be attending school in the near future (now I am not enrolled in any type of school) and I notice that Adobe has huge discounts on 'educational software'.
What exactly is the difference between the 'retail' version of a program and an educational version? Do you need some sort of student ID to activate an educational version, or proof that you're in school, or anything special like that? I've noticed people selling unopened educational versions on eBay and from what I hear there are no differences between the software, but this makes me wonder... why the price difference?
Also, I plan on buying another Mac in the near future - probably for school. My second questions is - with this software (educational), can I put the programs on both my Desktop and my Laptop, or will they only work registered to one person on one computer? I've heard from people that serial numbers can only be activated so many times.
Final question. My hard drive recently crashed, and I lost a good bit of stuff and had to re-install everything. If this would happen again, can I re-install all of the Adobe programs to a new hard drive? Or am I going to encounter the whole 'serial numbers can only be activated so many times' thing?
Okay. I think that about does it. Any input would be great. Thanks.
-Mike

In terms of contents, there is normally no real difference between the retail and educational/student editions. There may be some extra fonts or clipart in the retail version, but this varies from release to release and from product to product.
You must qualify to purchase an educational/student version. Such qualifications are listed on Adobe's website. Normally you must provide proof of such qualification to whoever sells such software licenses to you. You cannot buy now on the basis that you will be a student in the future. You must have the student status at the time of the purchase.
Unlike retail versions, educational/student versions of Adobe software are not transferable. Sales of such "unopened" software on eBay should be regarded with suspicion. Authorized Adobe resellers do not offer software sales on eBay. The software is either stolen, used (but repackaged), or pirated.
Most Adobe software, including the Creative Suite software, may be simultaneously activated on up to two computers owned and used by only one individual. The second computer is typically a mobile computer if the first computer is a home computer for students. For retail, typically the first computer is one's office computer and the second computer is a mobile or home computer. The computers are not to be running the software simultaneously. And no, two students can't share a single copy on two separate computers.
The software may be activated and deactivated but after 20 or so such cycles, you will need to call Adobe and explain what's going on to obtain any additional such cycles. If you are activated on two systems and a disk drive or computer blows out and you need to reinstall the software without having had the ability to deactivate on the blown system, Adobe's activation support group will normally grant you an extra activation, assuming that you don't have a record of abusing the priviledge (such as claiming your disk drive crashes once a month!).

Upgrading questions regarding applications

Hey all,
I am upgrading from my black macbook running snow leopard to a new macbook pro 15''. A quick question about my applications- I have several licensed programs (Microsoft Office, Photoshop, some video games, etc.). When I move everything over from my time machine to the new computer, will I have to reenter these codes? I'm afraid they've been misplaced over time, and I don't want to have to pay again for these applications.
Thanks in advance!!

Good luck. Also, there is a great app that I couldn't live without, called Wallet (http://www.acrylicapps.com/wallet). It's probably the best $20 I've spent. This will keep all your personal information secure and help organize serial numbers, web passwords, bank accounts, etc. You can customize the categories to add as many options as you need. I don't know how much money this has saved me over the years as I surely would have forgotten serial numbers and would have had to re-buy the software.

Questions regarding creation of vendor in different purchase organisation

Hi abap gurus .
i have few questions regarding data transfers .
1) while creating vendor , vendor is specific to company code and vendor can be present in different purchasing organisations within the same company code if the purchasing organisation is present at plant level .my client has vendor in different purchasing org. how the handle the above situatuion .
2) i had few error records while uploading MM01 , how to download error records , i was using lsmw with predefined programmes .
3) For few applications there are no predefined programmes , no i will have to chose either predefined BAPI or IDOCS . which is better to go with . i found that BAPI and IDOCS have same predefined structures , so what is the difference between both of them .

Hi,
1. Create a BDC program with Pur orgn as a Parameter on the selection screen
so run the same BDC program for different Put organisations so that the vendors
are created in different Pur orgns.
2. Check the Action Log in LSMW and see
3.see the doc
BAPI - BAPIs (Business Application Programming Interfaces) are the standard SAP interfaces. They play an important role in the technical integration and in the exchange of business data between SAP components, and between SAP and non-SAP components. BAPIs enable you to integrate these components and are therefore an important part of developing integration scenarios where multiple components are connected to each other, either on a local network or on the Internet.
BAPIs allow integration at the business level, not the technical level. This provides for greater stability of the linkage and independence from the underlying communication technology.
LSMW- No ABAP effort are required for the SAP data migration. However, effort are required to map the data into the structure according to the pre-determined format as specified by the pre-written ABAP upload program of the LSMW.
The Legacy System Migration Workbench (LSMW) is a tool recommended by SAP that you can use to transfer data once only or periodically from legacy systems into an R/3 System.
More and more medium-sized firms are implementing SAP solutions, and many of them have their legacy data in desktop programs. In this case, the data is exported in a format that can be read by PC spreadsheet systems. As a result, the data transfer is mere child's play: Simply enter the field names in the first line of the table, and the LSM Workbench's import routine automatically generates the input file for your conversion program.
The LSM Workbench lets you check the data for migration against the current settings of your customizing. The check is performed after the data migration, but before the update in your database.
So although it was designed for uploading of legacy data it is not restricted to this use.
We use it for mass changes, i.e. uploading new/replacement data and it is great, but there are limits on its functionality, depending on the complexity of the transaction you are trying to replicate.
The SAP transaction code is 'LSMW' for SAP version 4.6x.
Check your procedure using this Links.
